Book Overview

The Gospel For The Afghans is a book written by Henry George Raverty in 1864. The book is a translation of the Gospel of St. Matthew into the Pashto language, which is spoken by the Afghan people. The author was a British-Indian linguist and scholar who had a deep understanding of the Pashto language and culture. The book is an important historical document as it provides insight into the religious and cultural beliefs of the Afghan people during the 19th century.
